SARA - Response to Information Request

Figure 3 – Extract of proposed Site Plan

The new fenced compound area towards the west and partly towards the east is shown on the Site Plan
(Figure 3). While the development footprint for the existing Cleanaway Depot area is being expanded, this is
towards the west and in the southeast corner only as shown (refer doted purple outline in Figure 2). The
compound area is not being expanded towards the north, with the existing workshop to the north being
extended towards the west and maintaining the same alignment consistent with the existing parking area.

With respect to the specific actions that have been requested under the information request, the following
comments are provided:

•   The applicant does not have the digital data that has been requested, which is not a reasonable request
    and is unwarranted in the circumstances, given the scale of the development being proposed. The
    development plans have been prepared using CAD and only drawing files are available.

•   The tree height measurements towards the north beside the existing and proposed infrastructure have
    been provided on the plan prepared by Mr Friend and addressed in his advice provided. This includes
    advice about the tallest vegetation in this location and shown as the yellow line in Figure 1.

•   Mr Friend has addressed the relevant assessment benchmarks under State Code 16 (refer Attachment
    1A).

In summary, the potential impacts on the regulated vegetation as a result of the new infrastructure is
potentially worsened by about 166m², which is minimal, given the extension of the compound area towards
the west. There is no worsening with respect to other essential management clearing towards the north, given
the existing infrastructure is being retained. The proposed development does not extend further northwards.
